. . . home of the Rhode Island Historical Society,
was built by John, third of the famous "Four
Brown Brothers" (Nicholas, Joseph, John, and
Moses), merchants of Providence. Joseph, pro-
fessor of natural philosophy at Rhode Island
College (now Brown University), designed the
house in the Federal style, but died before the
work was commenced in 1786.

The original house was 54 by 50 feet, three
stories and attic, with four rooms on a floor,
divided by a wide hall running north and south
through the center. The ends of the heavy oak
beams are embedded in massive brick walls, even
the interior partitions being of solid brick.

The house has ever been of historic interest.

Vice-President John Adams, dined with the Browns
while journeying from Braintree to New York. Her
son, John Quiney Adams, sixth President, wrote in
his journal September 9, 1789, concerning the
house: "We only saw the outside of it, which is
the most magnificent and elegant private mansion
that I have ever seen on this continent." In 1790
Washington was entertained by his admirer, John
Brown, who named in his honor several ships and the
bridge he built to Scekonk (East Providence) .

The ell, which at present houses the museum on
the first floor, was built at a later date. Originally
there were several detached buildings: woodshed,
bath house, stables, and coach house.

Several architectural features of the house set a
precedent for many of the domiciles built in Provi-
dence later on : the four chimneys rather than two,
the slight projection, crowned by a pediment, in
the center of the facade, with the open entrance
porch set in the projection ; and the Palladian win-
dow over the entrance.

The central hallway is decorated with a heavy
cornice and deep frieze, with carving in relief.
Mahogany is used for the baseboards, chair rail,
doors, and the dominating stair case with its twisted
balusters and ramped rail. There is a shadow rail
at the left and a small piece of ivory in the newel,
known as the "peace point," signifying that satis-
faction had been reached by the owner and the
builder. Variety is the keynote, as exemplified in
the carving and the scroll, open, and broken pedi-
ments over the doorways. Tradition says that the
marble busts in the hallway and drawing room,
as well as those on the gateposts, were brought
from France.

At the right of the front door is the former draw-
ing room with the original dining room beyond,

rooms in which the Society now holds its meetings.
The ornamental ceilings are not original.

At the left is the morning room of Mrs. John
Brown, whose portrait in oil hangs over the mantel.
The mahogany secretary, reputedly was made for
Joseph Brown, by the Goddards, famous Newport
cabinetmakers of the eighteenth century. The
portraits flanking it are a self-portrait of Robert
Feke (ca. 1750), America's foremost artist prior to
Copley, and his wife Eleanor (Cozzens) Feke.

The present dining room, formerly office of John
Brown, is decorated with modern scenic wall paper,
depicting Washington's inauguration in New York
City (1789).

The rooms on the second and third floors are
occupied by the library.

GENEALOGK

The library rontains one of
the largest genealogical col-
lections in New England. In
the field of Rhode Island history
the Society's printed material
is unequaled. There is also
abundant material on the other
New England states and the country at large.
The Society's collection of Rhode Island im-
prints, the most complete in existence, is of
particular value to students of bibliography. It
begins with items printed by James Franklin in
1728. Equally outstanding is the collection of
Rhode Island newspapers. The file of the Provi-
dence Gazette, beginning in 1762, is complete
except for four issues.

Among the thousands of manuscripts in the
library are several collections of particular value
to students. They form but a small part of the
manuscript source material and are listed merely
to give an idea of the Society's holdings. In the
field of business history are the Almy and Brown
papers, the earliest records of an American tex-

tile manufactory, and the papers of the Builders
Iron Foundry; the Nightingale-Jenckes papers,
the Champlin papers, and the Obadiah Brown
papers, are all largely concerned with Rhode
Island's oversea trade in the eighteenth and early
nineteenth centuries. On this same subject are
the Custom House papers, (1790-1894). For
the searchers in legal history there are the
Richard W. and Albert C. Greene papers, and
the Thomas A. Jenckes collection. The Foster
papers, the Ward papers, and the Hopkins papers
are rich in source material of the eighteenth
century. The Peck papers, the Rhode Island
Historical manuscripts, the Shepley Library, and
the Moses Brown papers contain miscellaneous
but important documents.

The Rhode Island Historical Society is the
fifth of its kind to be founded in the United
States. Incorporated in 1822, its object has been
"to procure and preserve whatever relates . . .
to the history of the State of Rhode Island."
Without a building of its own for the first few
years of its existence, the Society was finally
located in the Cabinet (1844) at 68 Waterman
Street, designed by James C. Bucklin, an eminent
Rhode Island builder. It continued to occupy this
building for nearly a hundred years until 1942,
when it removed to John Brown House, its
present permanent home, the generous gift of
John Nicholas Brown.

Several organizations, such as the Roger
Williams Family Association, the Society of the
Cincinnati, the Sons of the American Revolution,
and the Mayflower Society hold meetings in John
Brown House. This is in keeping with the
Society's policy of making its headquarters avail-
able to the citizens of the state who are interested
in the historical development of Rhode Island.
Many visitors, including students and researchers,
avail themselves of the Rhode Island Historical
Society's resources. Persons recommended by
a member of the Society will be cordially received
as new members.

WIILIAI5 H DAVY

~ lliam H Davy was born in Bath, Ontario, Canada, Tune 19, 1844,
-on of Viliiam H and Hannah Perry Davy, both of whom were descendants
of United Empire Loyalists,

His father was a ship builder and merchant an* owned farm lands, ^e at-,
tended the Academy at Bath, also at Whitby and the Bryant and St rat ton
Business College at Oswego, N.Y.

During the Civil War he went to Chicago, where he became acquainted with
Potter Palmer, which resulted in a life-long friendship.

After the war Mr Davy returned to Canada until 1869, when he came again
to the U.S. and located in Duluth, Minnesota where he, in partnership
with Charles Caswell, opened the first photographic studio in that
growing city,

'"r Davy was very popular with the Indiansand with several other men
tramped all over St Louis and the adjacent counties taking pictures.

He spent the winter of 1871 in Koorhead, then a tiny frontier town, and
was so impressed with the furure possibilities of that area that he re-
turned in 1873 to establish permanent residence.

He was member of a group of young men who formed the Red P.iver Valley
Congress devoted to the interests of the Red P.iver territory.

During the first few years in Moorhead, he was book keeper and cashier
for Brund and Finfele Mercantile Co., later as a salesman, Hiile he was
employed there he was kno^n as Moorhead' s first banker. To him were en-
trusted large sums of money left for safety in the Company' s large
iron safe, Hven early day gamblers left their holdings in his care.

He also served as local agent for the American Express Co. that handled
mail and express by stage between Minneapolis and Fort Gary (now Winni-
peg).

Later he was in the grocery business, also a dealer in grain, flour,
building materials and fuel. After nine years in that business, he
devoted his time to farm lands and other real estate.

For nearly 50 years he invested heavily in real estate, and owned con-
siderable property in TToorhead, Dulutty, North and South Dakota

He was Chairman of the Co. Commission for several years, served 2 terms
as mayor, wa3 President of the First National Bank of "oorhead. Chair-
man of the City Water and Light Comm. , member of Charter Comm, and
served as Postmaster for 2 years. He was one of 3 men who organized the
Fergus Falls and Gt. Western TelephoneCo, which built 13 exchanges and
about 500 miles of telephone lines.

He gave the land on which St John's Church stands and most of the money
for its construction and contributed generously to the support of that
church. He also gave a large tract of land for a city park in IToor-
head.

T!r Davy died in San Diego, Calif, on Dec. 27, 1936 at age of 92|.

DAVY

John Davy, a United liapire Loyalist, left the Mohawk Valley In New York State
en? settled on a large trect o? lend on the Day of nuinte where Bath now stands, in
1785, such land beinf; given to him by the CrowiU Ha came from England 'and was of
W' lsh descent. He was a widower with tvsj dp.u^hters; one was named £ve whomarrled

Lewis and after his death nsrried Laird. I do not know who the

other daughter awurri* ,

John Davy was married Soptoaboi* 22, 1787 to Sophia Hufnagel by the Church of
lrnd missionary John Langhorn. It was the first marriage recorded on the books
of 0*. John's Church, Bath, find the fir3t birth recorded wes that of Peter Davy,
their first child.

St. John1; Church fit Bath was the second English chruch built in Canada* In those
days the churches were ell called English, es that was the established church.

John Davy had a lar£,e family. The children .carried as follows: -

Peter married Aurelia Chspman from House's Point, N%Y.
John married Faniiie 'Aoods

Benjamin F. married Cinderella Perry

George married Sarah Pringle

Sillier H. married Hannah St, Perry

Margaret married Saba Liurphy

Sophia married Ira Billings.

Elizabeth married John B. Miller, a southern ^entleuan.

When John Davy died, hi id went to his two oldest boys, |g nothing for
the youvw.-r boys. Els widow riarried Captain Stayers and took her family to Belleville
where they lived in the old Jaoyers home th?,t at ood ou the hill facing the Biver
Moira, which was them oiled ttoyers* Creek.

Captain foyers died, >ntf altho rich, his widow &ot nothing but a farm in Sydney
on the 3rd Concession, ebout nine miles from Belleville.

When Capt. Movers and Sophia Davy were married, ihe ceremony wrs not performed
by an English Church Minister, and in time there was a lew in Canada making such mar-
riages illegal, therefore the widow Moyere could not inherit her third of the estate.
The law was annulled years afterwards. TKhile great grwndf ether Peter Perry was in
Parliament, he was greatly interested in the legalising of marri&^es performed out aide
of the English Chruch. Sophia Moyers1 girls all married, but the boys were left home-
less. John Maybee married Barbara Hufnagel end lived ! on the 2nd Concession of Sydney
about 7 miles from Belleville. The boys bad a home with him for a while. Sophia Moyers
gave her farm to Sophia Billings, as she was poor. Ire Billings came from a fine family
in Ottawa. He was educated -^oya doctor, but drink was hia ruin. Sophia Moyers died on
her Sydney farm and was buried in the old graveyard on the Bay of tuinte, near Trenton,
about 1840. In the meantime Saba Murphy hsd established a business in Ovid, N.Y. He
taught Benjamin the business of a general store. Then Benjamin returned to Canada and

\^ and opened a general atore In Bath. He looked up the younger boys, George and
William *nd took them in his store*

Benjamin married Cinderella Perry, January 20, 1834. About 1S37 Benjtmin left
William in charge of the Bath store while he opened one at Na panes. Benjamin left
George in charge of the Napanee store while he moved to fthitby end went in partnership
with Peter Perry in a general store. *fter staying in Whitby two years Benjamin
aov.d to Belleville where he opened a wholesale and retail atore, pecked pork for
Gilmore»s lumber camp on the M&dawaska, end was also a hesvy grain buyer and the
— £4ret mayor of Belleville. He entered into rest March 6. IgoO.

George Davy was the first merchant in Napanee end owned the first grist mill on
the Nnpanee Piver.

The Hu'nagel family also came from the Mohawk Valley, but I do not know if they
came et the same time as John Dr;vy. Those Loyalists e?.ve up all their possessions
and came into Canada poor, bu*. loyal to their kin*>

Thomas Davy who moved from Cherry Valley to Mohawk Valley before the Revolutionary War.

The above was copied about 15 years a<*o from an article on the Davys
written by gr-aunt Cinderella Perry Davy some years before her life
ended in 1901 at the age of 86. Either she did not know that Tohn Davy
hacl willed Benjamin and George 100 acres of land or for some reason the
boys did not get it. but rest assured, Peter and Tohn got their 3hares

1004 North Curson Avenue
Hollywood-46-California.
Sept. 29, 1947.

Dear Peter:

Well-well-well the spirits finally decided it was time to

move you to get busy and write to that Davy -Perry-Rogers- Jenks and desc.
of a dozen other tribes, in California. Needless to say I was glad to
receive your letter for you always say something that stirs me to action
like looking thru my files, records, books, histories &o, &c. and incident-
ally to talk back.

Before you start reading this epistle from Lowry to Burleigh, eat your din-
ner, talk over the events of the day with Dorothy and the kiddies, read the
evening paper then stretch out on the davenport, take a long breath before
wading thru all the enclosed material-quite a long session.

''rhy be sorry that I brought up the matter of John and W.H.Davy? If I am in
error I want to be corrected, and sometimes I do have the satisfaction of
proving my point and correcting the other fellow. At the same time I detest
arguments that "wear me out"

Thanks for the return of the Davy notes that David Valleau had sent to me
several years ago. I was extra busy at the time and did not have a chance
for more than a hasty glance before sending them to you.

This time on opening the paper I read at the top of the page TCHN DAVY
b. 1751-d. May, 20, 1808 which seems to tie right in with your statements.
The no tesFH. S.Davy father of Harry Davy of Toronto have a different date
for John's birth. A short quotation follows:

" Thomas Davy, son of Thomas Davy of England with 2 sons, Thomas and Peter
came with a Dutch Colony to Virginia in 1610. He never returned to England.
A desc. Thomas Davy, later, an officer in the British Army settled in Her-
kimer Co. MY. (There is a record of Thomas Davy, wife and child in 1702 on
the records of the Dutch Reformed Church of Schenectady, N.Y. )

T^mas Davy the British officer was in the old French War 1754-64 with his
brothers Peter, George and Henry. From the brother Peter descends the
Canadian line. Peter was born in 1720-

Dr Laughlin and Mrs Hall of Bath are desc. from Michael TT5L

Harry Davy of Toronto is desc. *rom Peter--UEL y

In 1883 my mother wrote to her niece Birdie Fairfield in Bath asking her
to question Allen Lewis on what he knew of the Davy family.
His answer was that John Davy' s brothers names were Peter, Heijry, Thomas,
Michael, I still have the letter with his answer.

I copied the John Davy will from one Clara Da^y Johnston had, in 1939, and
the date of probate was not on it, and at that time I did not think of
getting the date at the Registry Office to verify it, as T did in 1944 at
your suggestion. After returning home I typed a new copy with the dates ,
then ptlf" it in the file and promptly forgot it, so when writing to you
the first copy was before me. After reading your letter I found the iiater
copy with the probate dates. Thanks for calling me on the car^et-I needed
it.

Yes, I know William was not mentioned in his father's will because the will
was made before he was born, then I began to ask questions, and was told
that William was a posthumous child. Evidently none of those who I quesi.
tioned had j^ever seen the will or if they had the probate datA'va? omitted
for I was told William waa bd>rn in 1812. and John 4JuUji in 1311.

How then--as John Davy d. May, 20, 1808 and William was born* Jan. 24, which
v«L& 8 months later, therefore William was conoeived approximately a month
before May, 20. l%c%

After Birdie Fairfoeld Sundberg d. in San Diego in 1945, the Davy bible
was given to me. It is an 1833 edition and grandpa had entered his own
name in the birth column, but left a space for the date, perhaps he had
was not sure of the year.

The largest part of John Davy's property went to Peter and John, but I
wonder why Benjamin and George did not get the 100 acres thaa was left to
them?
A.unt Cinderella says in her notes the younger boys got nothing, looks as
tho Peter and John gobbled everything in sight.

Aunt Cinderella says further that that George and William had a home with
John Maybe for a while.. It may not have been convenient for Maybe to keep
both boys for an extended period, and Wetzel may have taken William.

I know cases where boys have been taken into a family and have assumed the

foster parent's name, tho not adopted, and he probably staid there for
some time after Oapt. Moyers died and until Benjamin returned from Ovid, N.Y.
AND LOOKED UP rQeorge and "illiam to take them in business with him. after
which William resumed his own name.

ONE THING I AM SURE OF' AND THAT IS**PETER AND POLLY ^ERRY WOULD NEVER HATS
ALLOWED THEIR PRECIOUS DAUGHTER TO MARRY WILLIAM IF THERE HAD BEEN ANY DOUBT
AS TO HIS PATERNITYf NOR WOULD CINDERELLA HAVE RECOGNIZED HIM, IN FACT BOTH
WILLIAM AND SOPHIA V 0ULD HAVE BEEN OSTRACIZED BY THE "WHOLE DAMN FAMILY"

If William is not John' s son WHY did he have such a strong resemblance to
the Davys and WHY did ny mother and Uncle Will also "look .lust like the "^avys
I DO NOT NEED RECORDS TO PROVE MY POINT. I KNOW. I

Mrs Hall is a desc. of Michael Davy and when she showed me a photo of

li^r father Albert Wil3on Davy I noticed the close resemblance to my uncle
W.H.Davy Jr. and when I returned to Bath 3 years later in 1942, I took a
photo of Uncle Will to show Mrs Hall that the 2 men looked more like twins

than second cousinS.

David had copied part of Capt. Movers1 will for me and also questioned me

about the Tilliam H Wetzel -at that time I did not know how to answer him.

On account of the repetition of family names for generations the Davy fam-
ily is hard to trace, and a strong characteristic has been -to avoid pub-
licity.

So there the matter stands- To write everything would be too much of an .
effort, perhaps we will meet again some time then I can tell you.

Grandpa had some awful hard knocks in his life from others to whom he had
been TOO GOOD, but I seem to be the only one left to put up a fight for him.

-¥&

Is this a case of the woman having the last word?

he last letter from Ray said he intended looking up the land record of
the lot east of Dr Kennedy1 s house and that you said it had been in the
Rogers family. Grandpa Rogers gave it to Uncle Charlie, who had a fance
built around it to keep his cow from straying, as some of the Bath cows d
did. While building that fence-that was the time Mr Shepherd 3aid

"Enery, Enery go down to ' Ostelto^s and get some h1 oak or h' ash to make
an f amraer ' andle" I witnessed the building of the fence.

So, I remind you of what Bath was or could be. Others in Bath have told
me that I did not belong to California, that I belonged to Bath and ought
to live there. I was in Massachusetts for the first time in 1938, went
ag'ain in 1939 and 1946, and and people were surprised to know my home was
in California, they said I looked like a New Englander and like a resident
of that particular town, same thing happened in Rhode Island and New Hamp-
shire. Many persons here tell me I look like an easterner.

I never have liked the west any too well. I was away from Bath for more
than 56 years. Some of the relatives could not understand WHY I wasted
my>time on that God forsaken hole*. My visits to Canada were like a tonic
and the 3ame is true of Massachusetts.

Anthony Perry went to Rehoboth about 1641-43, his son Samuel, gr-son Jasiel,
gr-grandson David, gr-gr-grandson Robert and their wives were all born and
married in and around i-teheboth consequently I feel perfectly at home in and
about Attleboro. After the Rev. the established families began to separate
and scatter to other parts of the country, altho there are always some f
families who stay in the same towns and houses. Then the other ancestors
who joined the UEL trek to Ontario blazed the trails there so no wonder I
feel perfectly at home there too.

The summer has been very Hot; on days when the heat moderated somewhat, I

So — you £hink you' d like a pen picture of me in your legends.

The only description that would fit me is a Mrs Jack of all trades-Yes,
I have mastered some of those trades and professions, Any man or woman
who has a home and family must be adept in many lines of work and play.

Have you ever read Mr Herrington' s book Heroines of Canadian History?

I never thought of the book until after he died. I see an occasional Nap-
anee Beaver, and after reading about h s birthday (H7th) I wrote to him.

As he died 3 days after his day the letter was not received until he had
been gone two weeks. His daughter Mrs Sneath wrote me and said her father
would have been so happy to have read the letter. She enclosed a write-up
of him taken from another paper.

Pioneer life
In 1942 he consented to sell me one of his books LYfW among the Loyalists
of Upper Canada, because I wa3 interested. I refer to his L&A History very
often. No doubt his Heroines is out of print, but he may have told me
where a copy could be obtained. There are some errors in his history, but
they are easily corrected, and if he had not made an effort to write such
a history, one may never have been written. He realized the older genera-
tions were quickly passing out taking their memories with them, so he got
busy in the nick o' time.

And now David has \also passed on. I wonder who will use his notes in anoth-
er history. I thought of Crouse, but Hay said NO. Whoever uses them in
a book I hope they will be handled with as much care as David would have
given them had he lived.

NOTES

T*he old lead button marked Ks.Rl.Rt. N.Y. was net John Davy's as 3hown by
the quotation from a letter from the Dept of History and Archives in the
Old Court House at Fonda, N.Y. Letter was reo'd by Mrs Hammond of Coro-
nado, Calif, who wrote for information of Henry and John Davy. She is
desc. from Henry.

Quote — "We have a list of the men who served in the Royal Regt. and the
Loyal Rangers who settled in Upper Canada and it gives Henry Davy as
serving in the Loyal Hangers and John Davy in the Royal Regt of N.Y.11
(R.R.N.Y. ) which agrees with the U.E.L.List.

A glance thru the U.E.L.List shows that not many of the K.R.R. N.Y. were
among the Ontario settlers, most of whom were members of R.R.N.Y.

Here are some Fredericksburg names in the E". R.R.N.Y.

Luke Bowen, George Barnhart, John Carscallen, Jacob and Valentine Detlor,
Andrew Embury. James Fiibchett, Peter Fykes, Abraham and Henry Loucks.

It is possible the button may have belonged to one of the above.

I have an English penny of 1754, that ia a Bath relic. It may have been

left in the DaVy house by the Englishman who built it.

I have a very hazy memory of my mother telling me t once upon a time in the
dim past that the Davy store was at one time occupied by the Hudson Bay Co.
possibly Jimmie1 s assertion is correct. "Tould a history of the Co. state
the location of the Bath store. ?

Mrs Rose writes that Jimmie is having the interior of the Davy hoise modern-
ized. I hope the plans include a new and easier stairs- my mother used to
say "those stairs are woman killers". The house was built to endure for-
ever, anyway for 100' s of years like the old English castles. Grandpa was
married Jan. 25, 1840 according' to an entry in the Davy family bible, so I
do mot know how long before that the house was built.

Of course money would have to be borrowed, an architect employed, a cent-

be a drawing card for customers &o» Of course the time for making such
plans would have been right after the fire when outsiders Tere willing
to give financial help.

Similar things are being done other places. "Perhaps we will see Bath as

Dear Mrs. Lowry,

Bath, Ontario
27 July, 1947.

At very, very long last I am writing a letter to ou. Naturally
I am heartily ashamed o f being such a delinquent correspondent. Lut, as you sa ,
there isn't time enough ,'or a busy person to do all the things one v/ants, or
it to do.

Ho over, many thank 'c your letter ■ Letters like .yours and
I aan'e come with a certain degree oi' re; ilL i lit. , even though I never
answer. It just seem) as i. you both understand why I cio not answer as I should.
I o.e Raj three lettera — sad to relate, However, I expeet to write to Lim aft
I have com. 1 t to you.

We naturally miss seeing you in b th, although everj time ou
come you remina me oi vas, or could be. More' 8 the it , village

has not changed greatly . The he. scar that rested across Main Street aft

t fire has been somewhat obliterated by a disease in the shape of mushroom
stores — Hagedorn's, 0; io ne's and Gallagher's, not to mention a rking

Shop at the rear oii" the store once oper( tec n t Shepherd. I r have b

several cheap buildings constructed on the back streets, and the Babcock boys
at the west end c. the village are building tvin houses* Do I tl- a they int n
to retire and let th. old house go wit t farm. Beti n babcock fs and ArtiU
Hu.' .man's there are three new cott -one good and two bad, architecturally*

Otherwise, Bath is as much a maggot-inJ t d ruin as ever.

:./ thanks for your interest in my pro. osed 'L. no c the
Old Bath load.' Your an cdotes are refreshing n should find a lace in
reminiscences of the village. Io. this connection, iri.ll ycu tell me what •

you can recall of that portion o 1 nd along Davy Street frcm Ernest l's

blacksmith shop to the water front. I refer to the Turkington >ouse anc t
lot about it, as well asthe garden behind the ruith \ ;• . ou know, I own

that last lot. A few weeks ago I vas gardening and turned up an old leac utton.
It had the following inscription: 'Ks. Rl. t. Nei :crk, in t Lmes« All was
surrounded bj a th of 1 aves an BUrmountec by a crown. This was wit. .out

doubt a button of seme Loyalist who had served aider Si; J bn J nron. Perhi
it was John Davy's. I' event, it i 1 Lie, almost, in B*1 .

I am that you brought u. th diff i u< inion re

In the name of God Amen:

I, John Davy of the Township of Ernesttown, Province of Upper Canada,
being weak in body, but of sound and perfect mind and memory, blessing
Almighty Sod for the same, do make and publish my last will and testa-
ment in manner and form following (that is to say Firstly: I give and
bequeath unto my beloved wife, Sophia Davy, possession of the fixed and
movable property now owned by my family as long as she remains my widow.

Vis: Lot *10 on the farm in Ernesttown with all the belongings and movables
thereon, and in the event of my said wife's marriage or death, it is my
will and pleasure that my loving son, Peter Davy shall inherit this east
half of the aforesaid lot -10 and all fixed property thereon, and do here-
by will and bequeath to my loving son John Davy, the west half of the afore
said lot with grist mill, on arriving at lawful age.

Pending that the debts now due by me are then paid, which I do earnestly
pray that my sons will see and assist their mother in accomplishing, until
which time they cannot inherit such property.

I also will and bequeath to my son Benjamin F Davy, 100 acres of land in
the 11 township (Camden) and unto my son, George Davy 100 acres of land in
the 6th Concession of Ernesttown, and lastly, all movable property, and
lastly all movable property, goods and chattels of what land and nature
saves.

It is my will and pleasure to give and bequeath to Sophia Davy un-
til the marriage of my daughters Eve, Margaret, Sophia and Elizabeth, at
which time each will be entitled to claim an equal share of all said goods
and chattels &c.

I do hereby appoint William Fairfield and Andrew Miller as my sole executors
and administrators of this, my last will and testament, and hereby re-
voke all former wills made by me, as witness, whereof I have hereunto
set ray hand and seal on the 17th day of May, A.D. 1808, furthermore, it

Davey Family
Reunion Held

<JV£>

ODESSA, Aug. 9— The family
of the late Benjamin Davey and
Agnes Hymers recently held a re-
union at Lake Ontario Park. The
late Mr. Davey lived to be 96
years of age and his parents were
United Empire Loyalists, who
settled first on the shore of Lake
Ontario, near Parrott's Bay, com-
ing later to the Asselstine Woollen
Mills just southwest of the village
of Odessa, where he was born.
He operated the feed and flour
mills known as Links Mills, which
later were burned. He made some
of the first gold dust corn meal by
contriving a machine to separate
the white part of the corn from
the golden part. He also invented
a machine to remove the wild
peas from the wheat, which gave
a dark appearance and a bitter
taste to the flour and were a
great plague at that time.

Members of the family, their
children and grandchildren who
attended were Mr. and Mrs.
Albert Hartman, Mr. and Mrs.
Harvey Lucas, Mary and Gerald,

on Wednesday
to $16.50 for good ewes and weth-

Davy

The following account of the Davy Family was written by Cinderella
Perry, wife of Benjamin F Davy for her great grandson Robert Davy
Macauley. She died 1901, ae.86.

"John Davy, a U.B.L, left the Mohawk Valley in L.Y. and settled on a
large tract of land on the Bay of 2uinte where Bath now stands, in

1785, such land being given tib him by the Grown, He was a widower wilh
2 daughters, one of whom was named Eve who married Lewis and aft

after his death married Laird, I do not know who the other dau.

married.

John Davy was mar. Nov. 22, 178 7 to Sophia Huffnell by the Church of
England missionary John Langhorn, the first marriage recorded on the
books of St John1 s Church, Bath and the first recorded birth was that
of their first child Peter Davy.

St John1 s at Bath was the second English church built in Canada. In
those days all churches were called English, as that was the estab-
lished church.

John Davy1 s children married as follows:

Peter mar. Aurelia Chapman from Rouse* s Point, IT.Y.

John fiaka Fannie Woods

Benjamin mar. Cinderella Perry

George mar. Sarah Pringle

William H mar. Hannah M Perry

Margaret- mar. Saba Murphy

Elizabeth mar. John B Miller, a southerner

A few years after John Davy died, his widow married Captain Moyers and
took the younger boys to Belleville where they lived in the old Foyer
home that stood en the hill facing the River Moira, then called Foyer* s
Creek.

Capt. Moyers died in 1821, and altho rich, his widow got nothing but a
farm in Sydney, on the 3rd Concession about 9 miles from Belleville.
When Capt. Moyers and Sophia Davy were married, the ceremony was not
performed by a Church of England minister, and in time there was a law-
making such marriages illegal, therefore, the widow Meyers could not in-
herit her third of the estate. The law was annulled years afterwards.

While your gr-great grandfather Peter Perry was in Parliament, he was
greatly interested in legalizing of marriages performed outside of the
Church of England.

Sophia Moyers1 girls all married, but the boys were left homeless.
-Barbara Huffnell married John Maybee and lived on the 2nd Concession
of Sydney about 7 miles from Belleville, where the boys had a home for
a while. Sophia Mpyers gave her farm to her daughter Sophia who had
married Ira Billings who came from a fine family in Ottawa; he was edu-
cated for a doctor, but drink was his ruin. Sophia Moyers died on her
Sydney farm and was buried in the old Trenton graveyard near Trenton
about 1840.

In the meantime Saba Murphy had established a business in Ovid , N.Y..

r&M

warn

\le taught Benjamin the business of a general store; Benjamin returned
to Bath where he opened a general store. He sent for the younger boys
George and Willi am and took them in his store.

Benjamin and Cinderella Perry were married Jan. 20, 1834. About 1837
Benjamin left William left William in charge of the Bath store while he
opened one in Napanee. After that was well started Benjamin left George
in charge of the Napanee store while he went to Whitby and went in part-
ner with his father-in-law Peter Perry in a general store. After stay-
ing in Whitby 2 years Benjamin moved to Belleville where he opened a
wholesale and retail store, packed pork for GilmoreT s lumber camp on tte
Madawaska, was also a heavy grain buyer and was the second mayor of BeB
Belleville. He entered into rest March, 6, 1860.

George Davy was the first merchant in Napanee and owned the first grist
mill on the Napanee River.

The Hufnagel (Huffnell) family also came from the M»feawfe*j£all«y • These
Loyalists had to give up their possessions and came to Canada poor, ,
but loyal to their king. (M.TS.L. says he did not deserve their loyally)

Mary Hufnagel mar. Davis

Katie ■ " mar. Clough

Jacob " " mar. John Davy1 s brothers T s names were

Peter, Henry, Thomas, Michael. (I 3m sure the Thomas Davy who was kill-
ed in the Battle of Oriskany in the Mohawk Valley was John Davy' s broth*

er.M.S.L.) IcJU^C^, )

John Davy* s sister CatnerTne married Asselstine-son' s name David.

" n " Elizabeth " -Baker-son's name William.

The above was written by Gr-aunt Cinderella as she remembered it.
The records in the O.H.S.-Vol. I are more complete, but she was the
only one of her generation who tried to leave an account of her hus-
band1 s family. Her account of the Robert Perry familft was taken from
Hannah Perry Aylsworth1 s obituary, I did not think it necessary to
copy it. M.E.L.

DAVY FAMILY.

Laughlin Genealogy Notes.

2-48 BOYLSTON STREET

BOSTON

August 15th., 1938.

My dear Postmaster, -

What a small world this is alter all. When
I walked into the office here of Camp MEDOMAK, I was greeted at
the door by Major Davy, born and raised in Napinee, his father
still alive at 98, and his grandfather a UEL. His father's sisters
are still alive, one of them 102. They all have plenty of material
of value to the Bath Historical. Wasn't it a funny co-incidence that
I should run into him?

We are motoring around here and having a good
time for a few days. We are visiting at the New England Music Camp,
Oakland, Maine.

I leave for Chicago on the 18th, and hope to be
back at Bath the 28th.

With best wishes to all, believe me
Sincerely yours

THE DA7EY or DAVY families, by E.Rose LaughIin,M.D.

Tfye Davey family is intimately connected with the descendants of James

Laughlin so a few words about them will be appropriate. The Loyalists spell

their name Davey but their descendants frequently use plain Davy.

Four Davey Loyalists settled in Upper Canada. Apparently they were brothers.

(1) HENRY DAVEY of Ernest Town, soldier in the Royal Regiment of New York,

Land Board Mecklenberg,172>9.

His petition for land is as follows" -Henry Davey, U. 3. L. humbly prays for

lands for his wife and one child born before the year 1789.H

Henry Davy received a land grant, west half of Lot 7> Concession l4,in

Burford Township, Oxford County, Nov. 2, 1803; -land petition by Henry Davey

of Ernest Town, April 22,1817.

The military records show;-HHenry Davey, Lieutenant, 1st. Addington Militia,

Upper Canada, 1812-15 .

Henry Davey, Lieutenant of Militia doing duty at Kingston, appointed to

command a gun-boat, June 3,1312.

An extract: from "Officers of the British Forces in Canada during the War

of 1812-15 by H.L.Irving, 1908." ""Militia Officers doing duty at Kingston

First Regiment of Addington Militia; -Adjutant Henry Davey). Also in this

same book is the notatioaH Captain Mcintosh and Captain Davey of the

Incorporated Militia are appointed each to command a gunboat, Militia

Order, Kingston, 8 June, 1812."

MARY DAVY .daughter of Henry Davy,U,E.L.of Ernest town Township, petitioned

the Crown for lands on April 23,1817 in which she said she had attained

the age of 21 years, & is the daughter of Henry Davy who retained his

loyality during the late War without suspicions of aiding or assisting

the §nemy and did his duty in defence of the Province during the late War.

Andrew Mercer of the town of York was her agent to locate her land and takl

take out the deed. Her petition granted June 3,1817.

Mary Davy married William Houghtalin on May 18,1817.
